everybody, I am the android developer, I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
Because of some hardware problem, I have to format my PC. before that android studio , SDK and Java were working perfectly.
After formatting my PC. I installed jdk1.8.0_71. after i extract android studio deb file with command sudo dpkg -i android-studio_4.13.0-ubuntu0_all.deb
and 'android-studio' folder extracted at /opt directory.
after that, i try to run /opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh with command.
sh ./studio.sh and it gives me error like this
I have also tried by ./studio.sh to execute but same error. please help to solve.
To install Oracle Java on Ubuntu, do this:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
I do this every time I install an Android Studio and it works flawlessly. And your Java 8 will be kept up to date, too. The environment variables are automatically properly set by that procedure.
its all about ELF execution (when you get bushes in output)
when your 64 bit os tries to start the Android SDK which in turns tries to run some 32 bit binaries and thus is the issue of compatibility.
check you have proper libs installed for studio
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6
64-bit architecture your you need
sudo apt-get install libncurses5:amd64 libstdc++6:amd64 zlib1g:amd64
and 32 bit:
sudo apt-get install libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386
for details see:
https://developer.android.com/studio/install.html
ps if apt could not find such libs try to search for similar - the name can vary for different distro
also use proper java hotspot (jdk) 32/64bit for your system
Setting up Android Studio takes just a few clicks.
While the Android Studio download completes, verify which version of the JDK you have: open a command line and type javac -version. If the JDK is not available or the version is lower than 1.8, download the Java SE Development Kit 8.
To install Android Studio on Linux, proceed as follows:
Unpack the .zip file you downloaded to an appropriate location for your applications, such as within /usr/local/ for your user profile, or /opt/ for shared users.
To launch Android Studio, open a terminal, navigate to the android-studio/bin/ directory, and execute studio.sh.
Tip: Add android-studio/bin/ to your PATH environment variable so you can start Android Studio from any directory.
Select whether you want to import previous Android Studio settings or not, then click OK.
The Android Studio Setup Wizard guides you though the rest of the setup, which includes downloading Android SDK components that are required for development.
Note: If you are running a 64-bit version of Ubuntu, you need to install some 32-bit libraries with the following command:
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6
If you are running 64-bit Fedora, the command is:
sudo yum install zlib.i686 ncurses-libs.i686 bzip2-libs.i686

I had similar problems with finding java by starting android-studio on ubuntu.
I solved the problems by editing the studio.sh file.
In the file the JAVA_HOME variable should be set, but it wasn't.
So I set the JAVA_HOME variable in the script manually and I could start android-studio.
Finally i solved my problem bu reinstalling java properly. i thought i installed wrong java/jdk. now Android Studio,Java is working.
I found this link useful to install java step by step. Link to install java step by step

I have to install Android Studio on Ubuntu and I have used this link to download Android Studio.
Is there any easy way to install Studio on Ubuntu?
Below are the steps to install Android Studio in Ubuntu system:
1. Install JDK 6 or later
First, install Oracle JDK 8 (although you could also choose OpenJDK but it has some UI/performance issues) using WebUpd8 PPA.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-set-default
To make sure, it’s installed successfully, open a terminal and type (you should get the version number of the jdk you’ve installed e.g javac 1.8.0_11)
javac -version
2. Download and install Android Studio
Download the Android Studio package for Linux and extract it somewhere (e.g home directory).
Then type :
cd android-studio/bin
./studio.sh
3. Install SDK Platforms
You need to install some SDK before you jump into building android apps. Click on Configure -> SDK Manager to open Android SDK Manager. Select the latest API (to test against target build, e.g API 19 (Android 4.4.2)) and some packages in Extras (Android Support Library and Android Support Repository). Then install the selected packages.
Download the Linux SDK from the Android website.
Copy the folder to whereever you want to extract the contents.
Open a terminal there, and then run:
sudo apt-get install unzip
sudo tar xvzf android-studio-ide-135.1641136-linux.zip
cd android-studio-ide-135.1641136-linux
./studio.sh
JDK 1.7 is required for Studio 1.0 onwards:
Download the ubuntu zip from the d.android.com and repeat the steps from above
Download the jdk 1.7 by executing the following commands in terminal as mentioned webupd8:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer
Open Android Studio and install the SDK tools.
Caveats:
If your system has a 32 bit processor, use Platform Tools r23.0.1.
Refer to this bug for details.
Note: If you are running a 64-bit version of Ubuntu, you need to install some 32-bit libraries with the following command:
$ sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1
Source: - linux-32-bit-libraries
Run the following command on terminal.
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:paolorotolo/android-studio
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-studio
Don't forget to run:
/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh
when you are done installing.
The easiest method to install Android Studio (or any other developer tool) on Ubuntu is to use the snap package from Ubuntu Software store. No need to download Android Studio as zip, try to manually install it, add PPAs or fiddle with Java installation. The snap package bundles the latest Android Studio along with OpenJDK and all the necessary dependencies.
Step 1: Install Android Studio
Search "android studio" in Ubuntu Software, select the first entry that shows up and install it:
Or if you prefer the command line way, run this in Terminal:
sudo snap install --classic android-studio
Step 2: Install Android SDK
Open the newly installed Android Studio from dashboard:
Don't need to import anything if this is the first time you're installing it:
The Setup Wizard'll guide you through installation:
Select Standard install to get the latest SDK and Custom in-case you wanna change the SDK version or its install location. From here on, it's pretty straightforward, just click next-next and you'll have the SDK downloaded and installed.
Step 3: Setting PATHs (Optional)
This step might be useful if you want Android SDK's developer tool commands like adb, fastboot, aapt, etc available in Terminal. Might be needed by 3rd party dev platforms like React Native, Ionic, Cordova, etc and other tools too. For setting PATHs, edit your ~/.profile file:
gedit ~/.profile
and then add the following lines to it:
# Android SDK Tools PATH
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Android/Sdk
export PATH="${ANDROID_HOME}/tools:${PATH}"
export PATH="${ANDROID_HOME}/emulator:${PATH}"
export PATH="${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools:${PATH}"
If you changed SDK location at the end of Step 2, don't forget to change the line export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Android/Sdk accordingly. Do a restart (or just logout and then log back in) for the PATHs to take effect.
Tested on Ubuntu 16.04LTS and above. Would work on 14.04LTS too if you install support for snap packages first.
Note: This question is similar to the AskUbuntu question "How to install Android Studio on Ubuntu?" and my answer equally applies. I'm reproducing my answer here to ensure a full complete answer exists rather than just a link.
Here's how I installed android studio on xubuntu.
1. Install JDK:
Go through following commands to install jdk
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-set-default
If you want to install other version of jdk than replace your version number with 7 in last two commands.
2. Download the latest android studio from official site:
https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html
It is better to use latest version of android studio because I tried to install version 1.5.1 and it was not working. Then I installed version 2.1.1 and it run perfectly.
Extract downloaded android studio file in whichever folder you want.
Now go to extracted android studio-->bin directory and open terminal here. Now run following:
./studio.sh
And that's it. If you are facing any problem than comment below.
You can also Install using a PPA
link
In order to install Android Studio on Ubuntu Studio 14.04 and derivatives, do the following:
Step 1: Open a terminal using the Dash or pressing Ctrl + Alt + T keys.
Step 2: If you have not, add that repository with the following command:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:paolorotolo/android-studio
Step 3: Update the APT with the command:
sudo apt-get update
Step 4: Now install the program with the command:
sudo apt-get install android-studio
Step 5: Once installed, run the program by typing in Dash:
studio
you can install android studio by following steps in the terminal :
sudo apt update
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:maarten-fonville/android-studio
sudo apt update
sudo apt install android-studio
make sure you have no error in installation.
Android Studio PPA is maintained by Paolo Rotolo. We just need to add PPA to our system and install it using the following commands:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:paolorotolo/android-studio
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install android-studio

I was just investigating this issue now, you should use Ubuntu Make
Which "is a command line tool which allows you to download the latest version of popular developer tools on your installation"
You could always follow the official guide on how to install Android Studio on Linux. There's even a video you can watch!
https://developer.android.com/studio/install.html
Remember to select Linux in the drop-down box.
To summarise the steps: download Android Studio and extract it and execute studio.sh to run it. If you're running 64-bit Ubuntu, you will need to run:
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6
Follow the steps via terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
after then:
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-set-default
then;
Download Android Studio from "https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html", use All Android Studio Packages.
Unzip the file.
At last type via terminal :
cd android-studio
cd bin
./studio.sh
Then follow the commands and you're ready to go.
I was having having an issue with umake being an outdated version. What fixed it was:
sudo apt remove --purge ubuntu-make
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ubuntu-make
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ubuntu-make
umake android
I installed Android SDK in order to root my android phone, using script obtained thus:
wget http://linuxundich.de/static/android_sdk_installer.sh
chmod +x android_sdk_installer.sh
sudo ./android_sdk_installer.sh
(on my system: sudo /home/xxx/android_sdk_installer.sh)
Next, I also installed "android-tools" package (adb and fastboot) in 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 from WebUd8 ( http://www.webupd8.org/2012/08/install-adb-and-fastboot-android-tools.html):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
Then I used:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-fsutil
to backport the Ubuntu Raring builds to Ubuntu 12.04
Just discovered the packages (android-tools, adb and sdk) take too much valuable space and would like to remove them, together with all associated packages.
Need comprehensive guide.
Thanks.
PS.
I can provide the text of shell script android_sdk_installer.sh, though it may also be obtained from link above.
try
sudo apt-get purge android-tools-adb
Uninstall android-tools-adb and it's dependencies
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove android-tools-adb
I seem to be having difficulties switching to Android Studio. I created a new Project in Android Studio 0.4.3 on Ubuntu 13.10. but I have been plagued with issues. I originally had issues on a windows box when it was first distributed which is why i ignored it until recently. I fixed a few things with gradle but seem to still be having other issues and I ended up following a few suggestions from the links bellow though nothing helped. Does anyone have any suggestions.

How to Install Android studio in ubuntu 13.10
I've also installed fastboot and adb in terminal and I have also arbitrarily uninstalled whatever jdk I was using prior had and re-installed java 7 instead of 8 (since it would not install for some reason) via
sudo apt-get purge openjdk*
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java7-installer*
sudo apt-get purge oracle-java7-installer*
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java8-installer*
sudo apt-get purge oracle-java8-installer*
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*java*
sudo apt-get update
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer
bellow is the error message i am currently receiving
Execution failed for task ':helloandroid:mergeDebugResources'.

Output:
/home/kyle/Development/android-studio/sdk/build-tools/19.0.1/aapt: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Use lib32z1 - worked for me.
sudo apt-get install lib32z1
Since Ubuntu 13.10 no longer has ia32-libs I cannot get my android development environment running on a clean install of 13.10.
The error is ~/android-studio/sdk/build-tools/android-4.2.2/aapt": error=2, No such file or directory
This file does exist and is executable but it is a 32bit executable.
In previous installs I just installed ia32-libs to fix this but this solution no longer works for Ubuntu 13.10.
I have tried solutions proposed by askubuntu questions eg. this one https://askubuntu.com/questions/107230/what-happened-to-the-ia32-libs-package
but it isn't working for me.
From that askubuntu.com answer I see I should install separate packages with
sudo apt-get install package:i386
but I don't know which packages to install to make the android tools work again.
Has anyone else solved this problem and or does anyone have a list of packages which need to be installed for the android tools?
Another way(without adding i386 architecture)...
sudo apt-get install libc6-i386 lib32stdc++6 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5
sudo apt-get install lib32z1
Ref: Fix Android adb on Ubuntu 13.10 64bit
While dpkg --add-architecture i386 command is not needed in the current version of Ubuntu (13.10), it is required in the current Debian versions (7.x) and it will be required in the future Ubuntu versions as well. So I am going to leave it in. Just ignore it for Ubuntu 13.10.
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get -qqy update
sudo apt-get -qqy install libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386
Update: aapt indeed requires zlib so I added it to the list. But you should not be needing any lib32 packages.
It's just a matter giving sdk files the necessary permissions.
sudo chmod -R +x /path/to/android-sdk-linux
Restart Android Studio and see if that fix it.
Permission issues typically occur when you copy/move sdk files from a NTFS partition or copying from another computer.
On Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x64 and buildToolsVersion 21/22 it was enough to execute the following:
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libstdc++6:i386
sudo apt-get install zlib1g:i386
The error I was getting:
Execution failed for task ':core:processReleaseResources'.
